Adderley Cocktail

adderley cocktail

The Adderley is a cocktail that we’ve nicknamed “The Elixir” at home.  Any time we feel the slightest hint of a cold coming on, we make a round of these and we’re good to go!  The combination of lemon and whiskey with the maraschino to mellow it out is a nice combination.  It’s a good drink to play around with different ryes and is good with bourbons, too.

Recipe

2 oz Rye whiskey

3/4 oz Maraschino liqueur

3/4 oz lemon juice

2-3 dashes orange bitters

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker and fill with ice.  Stir well and strain into martini glass.
